Stored Cross-site Scripting vulnerability in Jenkins Dashboard View Plugin

Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published Mar 16, 2022 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Oct 27, 2023

Package

maven org.jenkins-ci.plugins:dashboard-view (Maven)

Affected versions

< 2.18.1

Patched versions

2.18.1

Description

Jenkins Dashboard View Plugin 2.18 and earlier does not perform URL validation for the Iframe Portlet's Iframe source URL, resulting in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers able to configure views.

Dashboard View Plugin 2.18.1 performs URL validation for the Iframe Portlet’s Iframe source URL.
Additionally, Dashboard View Plugin 2.18.1 sets the sandbox attribute for the iframe to restrict the included page.

In case of problems, the Java system property hudson.plugins.view.dashboard.core.IframePortlet.sandboxAttributeValue can be used to customize the sandbox attribute value. The Java system property hudson.plugins.view.dashboard.core.IframePortlet.doNotUseSandbox can be used to disable the sandbox completely.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
